Who do you blame for the failures at Gitmo?
Attorney General Eric Holder said Friday that he was surprised by the resignation of White House Counsel Greg Craig and believes Craig has been unfairly blamed for the administration's difficulties in closing the prison base at Guantanamo Bay.
Briefing reporters at the Department of Justice, Holder called Craig a "great lawyer" who had "contributed in a significant way to the success of this administration." On the issue of shutting down Gitmo -- a project that Craig spearheaded within the administration, but which has stalled in Congress -- the AG insisted that it was wrong to scapegoat one person.

Then i blame BO,2nd, for completely fouling it up and making it even worse than it was prior.
Congress is also at some fault but we already knew they were clueless and ineffective anyways!
BO is a nutjob with a brain the size of a walnut ,to bring them here. and then he will give them right of free counsel?! plus same coverage of the Constitution as US citizens?!
this sucks major B.S.!!!!!! what an A$$! this has to stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What is back ground?
Is he capable of making these kinds of decisions?
HELL NO....Obama 's boy...
another thing it was kinda a joke, dont take things to literal sometimes :/
The Democratic Party delivers candidates that make and break promises they cannot or will not keep.
As always, nobody at the top, including Obama will take the fall, therefore, it looks like Greg Craig fell on the sword.
Gitmo was a key issue during Obama's election campaign, so I find it hard to believe that he didn't have his fingers all over the fiasco that entailed in not closing it, much against most peoples wishes. as always.
Keep the terrorists off of our soil! Now we are bringing the terrorists back to the source of their destruction to reopen old wounds and face a tainted justice system that may well set them free.
Our current government could screw up a one soloist concert!
Bush and members of his administration should be held responsible for these U.S. Constitutional infractions.
